While I share your concerns for democracy in Cuba there is likely still majority or close to majority support for the government and far from majority support for the embargo, so I think that by far the best way to support the agency of the Cuban people is to allow greater economic freedom, not to encourage potentially unpopular and certainly massively destructive military action.

This is quite an assumption, and if it's true, it's only because those who disagreed with the regime have already been killed or leapt into the ocean to perish or prosper in Miami

While there was large emigration historically out of Cuba of people that disagree with the governments, there were very far from enough people killed during the revolution or later to significantly improve those numbers.

It's not an assumption, there are polls with approval ratings for various political figures from even western institutions that show that approval ratings 40-60 are the norm. It's possible that the approval has decreased due to the crisis, but that's not unique to Cuba and if it is maintained it's plausible for the president to change.

Where did I voice support for military action?

I feel like I'm talking to automated talking points bots.

What's the alternative? I don't understand the end goal there. What can be done except military action that will help, given that we accept that economic pressure doesn't help on the balance?

Please don't accuse me of being a bot just because my unstated priors are different from your unstated priors. It's really poor for the conversation and for every interlocutor.
